The news of the release of a new generation XF wagon was confirmed in a publication snapshot test the prototype's camouflage.
Prior to this, rumors spread that the brand will no longer produce generalists because of their low popularity. At least, that was understood by the words of chief designer Ian Callum. Now it turns out that saying so, he meant only the youngest XE.
So versatile, built on the base XF sedan to debut in 2017.
In its basis — an elongated version of the new modular chassis with an aluminum monocoque. LED head optics remind 4-door and the rear part of the body — a crossover F-Pace.
But because it is still touring, the boot capacity is 600 liters, with folded rear seat number — up to 1700 liters.
Under the hood will take its place one of these engines to choose from: 2-liter petrol or diesel family Ingenium, as well as the possible 3-liter V6. As for the «charged» S-version, then there will have 3-liter compressor «six» with the return of 380 hp
Extreme variant of SVR is also not excluded, then the wagon will rival Audi RS6. Accordingly, under the hood should expect a 5-liter V8 with a supercharger drive (capacity of at least 575 hp, this is supercar Jaguar F-Type SVR and SUV Range Rover Sport SVR).
Debut Jaguar XF Sportbrake is expected in the autumn of 2017 at the Motor Show in Frankfurt.
